Stapling unit moving mechanism

• The stapling unit is moved by the stapling unit moving motor.
• The stapling unit moving motor drives the belt so that the stapling unit is moved to the
corresponding stapling position.
• The stapling stop position is controlled by the period of time during which the stapling
unit moving motor is kept energized, as counted from the time when the staple home
position sensor has been activated.
• The stapler unit will move to the stapler save position during the saddle mode.
(The stapler unit needs to be in the save since the moving part of the holding section
shifts from horizontal to 20 degrees angles during the saddle mode.)
• The stapler save position is detected by the stapler save position sensor.
